OUR EXPERTISE GENERAL CONTRACTOR
Our general contractor company, based in the Cannes area, carries out high quality work for private individuals and professionals on the French Riviera, with over 30 years of experience in the renovation and construction of prestigious villas, from Menton to Saint-Tropez, via Cannes, Antibes, Monaco and more.
As a general contractor, we manage and coordinate the various stakeholders involved in the project, for which we are solely responsible until delivery, ensuring quality at every stage. Our subcontractors (electricians, plumbers, etc.) have been with us from the company’s very beginnings and guarantee services that meet our high standards.
OUR STRENGTH Structural work
Structural work is at the heart of your project and the backbone of the building. It is of paramount importance to guarantee its perfect execution. That’s why, right from the start, we have chosen to train our own teams of masons and to possess our own equipment and depot, so that we can carry out the most technical and demanding work with confidence: underpinning, openings, work on foundations, swimming pools, etc.
We work closely with renowned design offices and architects. In over 30 years of business, we can proudly say that we have never had a claim and have never had to call on our ten-year insurance policy.
Our uniqueness Design
Having acquired expertise in the implementation of high-end construction work, we want to offer the same high standards of quality from the design phase onwards, so that we can provide a complete service.
It is from this vision that Shazad Conception was born, a design office capable of imagining and implementing ambitious projects for homeowners looking for a high-level service. Our agency is able to respond to all stages prior to the start of construction, including feasibility studies, sketches and drawings, planning permission (prior declaration, building permit, etc.), estimations and costing, project management, architecture and interior design.
